Thoughts Upon Re-Entry - Catherine, from Cornerstone

As my time here in Lithuania is getting shorter and shorter
I cannot help but think about returning back to the United States. My heart is heavy as I think about returning
home and back to Cornerstone. It is not
that I do not want to go home, it is that I do not want to leave. Of course I am looking forward to running
into my family's arms at the airport and sitting around the fire place showing
pictures and sharing stories of my time here in Lithuania. However, I am not
the same person I was when I got on a plane 4 short months ago. I have made friendships and had new
experiences that have opened my eyes and impacted me in ways that I could not
have expected, not even a little. I will
cling to every memory and know that I have left part of myself here in
Lithuania. With this being said I ask
for your patience and understanding as I return back to Michigan. This is not going to be an easy transition for
me. Not only am I a different person,
but I am leaving behind people that have helped me become more of who I want to
be. I'm leaving relationships that have
blessed me in ways I could never imagine. They have become my family and LCC
has become my home away from home; they have taught me how to truly love and
have challenged me in numerous ways. This has been a time of extreme growth and I hope that I can only
continue to grow and discover more about myself and the world around me.
